Yucking it up with our friends in VC land

Wondering what life’s like as a venture capitalist? A lot of bluster and canned business advice, it turns out.

At least that the take by Blueprint Ventures, a South San Francisco firm that crafted an amusing animated video clip that pokes fun at the industry it operates in. The clip was included in the company’s digital holiday card and has been making the rounds in the tech industry.

Let’s be frank here. VCs aren’t the most loved bunch. Some might accuse them of being self-important egomaniacs who lack business sense — all of which is good fodder for satire.

Before you start thinking the partners at Blueprint have a future as Hollywood producers (or simply have a lot of time on their hands to make videos), think again. The clip was done by the designers at Iron Creative, in San Francisco.
